While the business of real estate may seem
stagnant these past few years, there is a lot of hope for the residents of
Elizabethtown, KY. Money may be tight and that is understandable because we are
just recovering from the economic hardships that have swept across the nation.
But, even if today does not look like a fruitful day, one must always stay true
to their dreams of a better future. This is what Shawn Paul, a realtor at
HardinHomes.com and someone who specializes in flipping houses for a living is doing. As
someone who has been in the business of flipping houses well over 4 years, he
knows that one must take into great care when buying and selling houses. What is Flipping Houses?
Basically, flipping houses is when you buy
a property that is priced well below market value and either renovate it or
break it down and build it back to brand new condition. It sounds pretty
straight forward but according to Mr. Paul, he claims that, “buying the right
one and selling it at the right price” can be a very daunting task and this has
always been his biggest challenge in this business. He says that one must
invest a lot of time and money in order for this business to become very
lucrative. You must also have a lot of “general knowledge in construction costs
and understanding of the math and financial numbers where the pricing will be.”
Challenges You Will Face When Flipping Houses
There are many challenges one will face
when flipping houses but so far, Mr. Paul says that, “he’ll be glad to help” if
anyone wants to ask for advice from him. You have to know how much items cost
and understand the whole gamut of things before you can really market the
property you are working on to be a profitable one.

Mr. Paul wishes the economy could get
better when it comes to the real estate market and hopefully it will since
right now it is experiencing a buyer’s market wherein prices of homes are
selling way below their fair market value. This can mean that more people are
willing to let go of their investments and hard work for a lower price.

by Mr. Paul but it will take a lot of time and money on your part as well. He
